Antonis and his team have been doing an extremely usuful job, especially for those who had to reinstall XP and download for 3 days via dial-up all the updates after the SP2 release. I was among them, alas! I urge MS to think about millions of Windows users who cannot have a broadband. This MS decision is a big shame to MS and utmost arogance of users.
Note, MS, that the creators of AP have not made money of it. They are just NORMAL human beings serving others.

RATHER purchase the concept and release it under the Microsoft brand if copyright is such an issue!!! Autopatcher was used by administrator loyal to Microsoft - HELP MAKE THEIR WORK EASIER!!

The same entry in the aboeve mentioned petition from yours truly:

MS is taking it down. Have a heart guys, this program are saving a lot of network bandwidth. Now MS angered a lot of techies who was suppossedly their supporters, myself included. Now, atleast for me, MS stood for Microsoft Sucks!

Bolshaw [Signature #47] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2329458?utm_medium=rss AutoPatcher increases the security of MS Windows machines and decreases the TCO of MS Windows. Shutting it down, apart from upsetting a lot of people, has no benefit for Microsoft.

I am sure you are aware that Windows is not fully secure until AFTER it has been patched. Therefore you are now requiring me to unsafely attach to the internet to patch my customer's computers. Please reconsider your position. Perhaps I should start actively promoting Linux instead.

If you get rid of those who help you, whats left? YOUR ENEMIES. Stop thinking of electronic control and more of the people who actually pay for your products. There are plenty of open-source alternatives which are just as good, but Microsoft was first, so it is embedded into society. Now a new generation is coming, and Windows is dying, and the computing world will be more diverse and happy. Thats my 2c.

Signing off,

To install or repair XP will now require a consumer at the minimum 6+ hours to download and install 100+ updates/patches. AutoPatcher simplified and shortened this task.

[Signature #37] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2321850?utm_medium=rss The ban on Autopatcher is outrageous and unjustified.

OR is it ok that we send a bill to Microsoft everytime we lost a alot of time because of this legal action?

HOW many hours have not been saved with autopatcher?

Are Microsoft willing to pay for all the extra hours for all the people worldwide that need to explain why the same job takes a couple of hours longer than before?
